Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall
B+
ValueB
NeedB
TradesA+
FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Steelers a B+. The trade table was a mismatch, and the Steelers were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value.
It is not that Beebe is a bad player; it is that the Steelers had louder needs to answer first. That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. On value alone, Schrader makes the weekend a net positive.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick32
Rnd1
Jordan Morgan
In the 32nd overall pick they get a blindside protector. Need was not the driver here.
Pick60
Rnd2
Denzel Burke
A tidy bit of business in slot 60, where Denzel Burke graded well above the range. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick85
Rnd3
Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. at the Round 3 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick97
Rnd3
Roman Wilson
Nothing to complain about; Roman Wilson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick120
Rnd4
Cooper Beebe
They bypassed pressing needs at tight end to take Cooper Beebe, an offensive lineman that was not the priority.
Pick121
Rnd4
Ray Davis
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ray Davis. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick132
Rnd4
Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks in No. 132 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick134
Rnd4
Kedon Slovis
By-the-book stuff, Kedon Slovis at the 134th pick squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick169
Rnd5
Malik Washington
Malik Washington at pick No. 169 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick172
Rnd5
Frank Gore Jr.
Good price on Frank Gore Jr. in the 172nd pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It fills a real need, too.
Pick183
Rnd6
Zion Tupuola-Fetui
Zion Tupuola-Fetui in slot 183 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick199
Rnd6
Curtis Jacobs
No drama and no debate, Curtis Jacobs went about where he belonged in No. 199. The roster fit checks out.
Pick242
Rnd7
Fentrell Cypress II
Fentrell Cypress II slid further than he should have, and Round 7, Pick 22 is lovely value for the cornerback. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick248
Rnd7
Derek Wingo
Derek Wingo in pick 248 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick253
Rnd7
Cody Schrader
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Cody Schrader at the Round 7 slot is the proof. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
